China today executed a man who killed six people and injured four others with guns and an iron pipe in Shanghai three years ago.
Fan Jieming, 65, was sentenced to death by Shanghai No 2 Intermediate People's Court for murder, robbery, and forcible seizure, illegal purchase and possession of guns last July.
Fan had a dispute at a chemical factory in the city's Baoshan District on June 22, 2013, where he beat a colleague to death with an iron pipe, the court said.
He then took a hunting rifle from his dormitory and asked a driver to take him to another district. He killed the driver on the way and took the vehicle.
At a nearby military barracks Fan killed a guard and took his gun. He then returned to the plant and shot dead other three people. Fan also seriously injured three people.
He was captured by police the same day and put on trial in January, 2014.
